Bacon Potato Frittata image

This is a very tasty alternative to a usual "run of the mill" omelette. My mother found this recipe in "Hometown Cooking" (by Better Homes and Gardens), and now it's a weekend breakfast favorite in my family. My Mother omits the green onion, and cooks sliced yellow onion with the potatoes.

The frittata was a bit too brussels sprouty for my taste. I think I would use less brussels sprouts next time.

I'm not usually a fan of frittatas, but this one was really good! The bacon and potatoes were a great combination, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

This frittata was easy to make and turned out great! I used Yukon Gold potatoes and they were nice and crispy. The bacon added a nice smoky flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
